Project Report | Jul 1, 2026
Providing a safe haven

By shayle havemann | Project leader

Shockingly, two in three children in Zimbabwe experience violence or abuse as a child. The UN reports that one in three girls under 18 experience sexual violence, leading to teen pregnancy and early marriage. With so many children dealing with trauma at a young age there is a need for special education equipped to help.

A majority of these children don't even have access to education due to lack of birth registration. This creates a vicious cycle of poverty and lack of education, making it difficult for them to fight against the odds. Traditionally there is no support across the whole of Zimbabwe for these children.

This project is the first in Zimbabwe, a private school that is being funded through charitable donations recruits children from extreme vulnerable backgrounds. The school's team works closely with each child, supporting and training them to prepare for their government exams to move into secondary school.

 

We spend $100 per week for lunches for the children at the school. Thank you for your support.
